Palmyra Wanderley, a Cigarra dos Trópicos: imaginários culturais e mapa onírico em “Roseira Brava” (1965). 2015. 182f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Ciências Sociais) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2015.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/20454This study offers a reflection on the biographical panorama of the nineteenth century transition writer for Nine hundred, Palmyra Wanderley (1894-1978) and the context of intellectual and literary production in the 20s, in Rio Grande do Norte. This relationship enables new understanding of the cultural imagination of this writer, influential newspapers and literary scene. In order for the research to take one direction, the following problems were investigated: How can reframe the cultural female imaginary, produced by commentators about Palmyra Wanderley as a woman-poet? The extent to which his writings in newspapers allow to show the feminist approach? From Bachelard reading images, that dream spaces resonate the work “Roseira Brava”? For this, scholarly essays of scholars and commentators of Palmyra work were used; text personal collection, collected in the printed newspaper A República (1914-1922); and the book “Roseira Brava”, authored by Palmyra (1965, 2nd edition). The survey also brings reading poetic images of this literary work in which there are lyrical and descriptive poems Natal’s City and were used to elicit images denoting dream spaces. The analysis methodology of these poems are grounded in the phenomenology of the philosopher Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962), based on the works “The poetics of space” (2008) and “The poetics of reverie” (2009). The results show that education for women, during the transition nineteenth and twentieth century, in Rio Grande do Norte, had reduced supply compared to males, reducing social opportunities for women. And only women from families with the availability of financial resources could afford to study in private and religious schools, as happened with the writer in question; furthermore, most literary critics of Palmyra Wanderley had sexist elements in his speeches, among other characteristics, enabling build four categories of cultural imagery, such as “complimentary speech”, “literary traits”, “masculine comparisons”, “religious traits”; the poems analyzed were related to bachelardianas categories such as “nest”, “home”, “pain areas” and “permanent childhood”.porAcesso AbertoImaginário culturalEscritora de transiçãoPanorama biográficomasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::SOCIOLOGIA
